Blue Chill | WalktoBeach | HotTub-all yr | Dogs OK

Launch your fabulous beach getaway from daily stresses and bring your group – and pet – on a road trip to fun and games just a mile from Washington Park Bch. The 8-person hot tub will feel delightful after a day on the beach or nearby shopping, and attractions. Grill and dine in the private backyard; then gather 'round the firepit under mood lighting. Garage game room has it all, with cornhole, Foosball, a 55" ROKU TV, and seating, with board/card games available. Enjoy 1-level living, 2 baths.

The Space:

Blue Chill Hideaway lives up to its name by providing a fun and comfy place to chill; surrounding trees give a hideaway feel, but even more important is the quiet, peaceful neighborhood.

Walk under the portico and enter through the inviting outdoor sitting area with its charming bench. As you step in, you'll immediately notice the airy spaciousness of the open floor plan. Feast your eyes on the clever double fireplace design (coming soon: electric fireplace inserts). Experience the convenience two full bathrooms and everything you need on one level – no stairs to climb.

Relax on the living room's comfortable seating and take in the tasteful décor with pops of cheerful bright colors. The space is light and bright! View the ROKU TV with your own streaming subscriptions. You'll also find extra sleeping space here in the form of a queen-size blow-up mattress.

In the fully equipped eat-in kitchen, take advantage of every chef's preference – a gas stove in the convenient kitchen island. Within the unique rustic, modern farmhouse design, you'll find everything you need – from coffee station to toaster and blender.

You'll love the convenience of the washer/dryer tucked into a closet off the kitchen area.

When it's time to sleep, choose from four bedrooms. You'll be amazed at the storage options in each room.

Bedroom 1 features a queen bed, storage armoire, and ceiling fan, accompanied by comforting bed linens, pops of color, and convenient USB lamps.

Bedroom 2 is bright and sunny with a sunshine linen motif on the queen bed. This room also provides a large storage armoire.

Still another queen bed and storage armoire await in Bedroom 3 with décor touches from nature.

Calming splashes of blue soothe you in Bedroom 4, which offers a twin bed with twin trundle.

Exult in the convenience of two bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite, and both with superb lighting provided by glass-brick windows. One bathroom offers a relaxing yet luxurious design and a jetted tub with shower. The other boasts an elegant, furniture-like vanity and walk-in shower.

Have a blast in the game room converted from a garage. Enjoy board games, card games, TV, Foosball, cornhole, and Adirondack-chair seating. Grab a refreshing cold drink from the beverage fridge.

Outside, grill and eat meals al fresco on the deck with its dining area. Hang out with your group in the hot tub or on Adirondack chairs around the firepit under mood lighting.

Guests rave about responsive and accommodating hosts and the fact that Blue Chill Hideaway feels like home!

Double Booked
I can not tell you about the property because we never got to stay. When we arrived at the property on our check in date, there were people already at the house. They double booked the property and when I tried to contact the hosts they were not available to talk. Only received a text message that stated "It's not showing up" and "I don't know what happened" even after I sent them screenshots of our booking confirmation. We were left without a place to stay. Will NOT be booking with this host again.

Cute Spot to enjoy a relaxing weekend!
We took a long weekend with family to just be able to relax with each other and hang out at a beach. The proper was close to Washington Park beach so we could enjoy a day at the beach and at the zoo across the street. It is close to many attractions. The property managers are very friendly and easy to talk to. They made the whole process very easy and checked in with us. It was a great stay and will definitely consider properties by these people again as it looks like they have some other areas to explore too!

Overall happy
Walkable to beach, Clean (except couch needed cleaning) and comfortable beds. Foosball was fun and Fire pit was nice. Owner was very responsive in getting hot tub cleared up quickly. Before arrival the owner did tell us there was room in a bedroom for the air mattress. There was not room in any of the bedroom - only the main living room.

Home away from home
This home was the best home I have stayed at in Michigan City. Me and my family was there for a funeral and the owners checked to make sure we were ok and if there was anything else they could do. The first I had ever experienced so much hospitality. Very much appreciated. It was super clean, comfy, roomy, beautiful showers and most of all pet friendly. The hot tube had an issue and was unable to use but the jetted tub was just as good. For up coming renter I would recommend you bring a TV if you have kids like to play on their games as there is no TVs in the bedroom but there is a 2nd TV in the game room +. I would definitely love to stay here again and all my family.
